Now this would have gone down well in Brighton.<br /><br />&quot;It was gracious of Peter Mandelson to admit that New Labour bears some responsibility for Jeremy Corbyn’s victory. [His article September 13, “I’m partly to blame for this mess but let’s fight back to win back Labour”]<br /><br />Tony Blair led the Labour party the way Basil Fawlty ran his hotel on Gourmet Night, insulting and abusing the long-stay residents in the hope of attracting a better clientèle. He and his acolytes maintained this approach in a decade of unbroken arrogance and condescension towards party critics. Our doubts were dismissed as childish or spiteful. We were told repeatedly that New Labour’s outlook and policies were the only possible path for Labour in government and the only alternative to the Hard Left nincompoopery and electoral carnage of the 1980s.<br /><br />It is especially galling to be lectured in this way by people who left frontline British politics to make money.<br /><br />The guests in Fawlty Towers eventually revolted. Labour supporters have done the same.Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01996390637504432177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30659802.post-48774266107731118782015-05-02T09:50:42.881-07:002015-05-02T09:50:42.881-07:00Came to your blog while Googling for D.D.

I think Vauxhall is an Indian car company and they make cars wit motability, for those who need wheel chairs. There is another company called Ostrich mobility that makes electric wheel chairs. So the Ostrich is wearing red patent leather shoes that match the finish of the car, and jewels to signify fancy(???)-- My best guess anyway!<br /><br />http://www.ostrichmobility.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30659802.post-31997813658966260892014-05-18T15:13:52.331-07:002014-05-18T15:13:52.331-07:00I like the fact he wants An Independence, implying...I like the fact he wants An Independence, implying there are many different Independences from Europe.

Thought they&#39;re certainly outdated. <br /><br />When I was in my 20s and early 30s most of my friends and myself sunbathed topless when on holiday. Some of the luckier among us still do. When I was a little kid, my mum sunbathed topless on family holidays too.<br /><br />I don&#39;t think the royal couple should be sueing Le Closer and I don&#39;t think they should be incandescent with anger, either, as mentioned in their personal statement. <br /><br />But I don&#39;t think sunbathing topless shows a &#39;penchant for getting your kit off in public&#39; or that people who do it get a name for themselves, or did when you were growing up when topless sunbathing abroad was probably even more de rigueur than it is today.<br /><br />Good headline though!

So if there are 100 stations then the number of possible journeys is 9,900. That would make the 47 walkable journeys about 0.5% of the total.Matthew Reeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17373136348794501350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30659802.post-3809163747754391202012-03-16T23:50:52.840-07:002012-03-16T23:50:52.840-07:00I hate those posters!
